Once Was King is a medieval platformer featuring a greedy king named Edward. It is built in the classic 8-bit nes style and is designed to be played with a gamepad. OWK focus is on level designed challenges, the gameplay style is most similar to Super Mario but without the run button and includes double-jump instead. Enemies are slain by jumping on their heads. The game is unforgiving for those who like to do quick run- throughs and is reminiscent of 80's style gameplays. OWK features: -medievel platformer -Treasure chests -currently 9 chiptune tracks (some actual 15th century songs adapted to 8-bit) -level designed challenges (none of that endless runner stuff) -vibrant graphics, even looks great on big screens -treasure goblins (get back here:) If you would like OWK to see the light of day, please support us on Steam greenlight
